INSTALLATION 9
FIG. 8
NOTICE: Waste connections or drain outlets shall be designed and constructed to provide for connection to the
sanitary waste system through an air gap of 2 pipe diameters or 1 inch, whichever is larger.
NOTICE: Observe all plumbing codes. Most codes require an anti-siphon device or air gap at the discharge
point. The system and installation must comply with state and local laws and regulations.
FILL THE SALT STORAGE CONTAINER
Fill the salt storage container with water until the level reaches about 1 inch above the salt support plate. Pour salt
into the container. Fill with salt to within a few inches of the top.

METER CONNECTION
To connect the probe or meter leads refer to Figure 8 and proceed as follows:
Remove the timer cover by unsnapping it from the back plate.
Unhook the circuit board mounting plate by lifting the top snap and removing from the backplate.
Slip the sensor probe lead or meter cable through the hole and toward the circuit board.
NOTICE: The strain relief located on the back of the wire connection for the Aqua-Sensor
®
probe may have to be
removed in order to fit it through the backplate. Replace the strain relief if you need to remove it for assembly.
Connect the lead to the circuit board. The Aqua-Sensor
®
probe terminal is labeled "AQUA" while the Soft-
Minder
®
meter terminal is labeled "METER".
Pull any excess cable wire back out of the enclosure, and route the wiring inside the enclosure to avoid any
interference with moving parts.
Locate the strain relief bushing in the parts pack. Place it on the cable at the point of entry to the rear of the timer
plate and push it into the hole.
NOTICE: The wire connectors must be connected to the circuit board properly. The wires must exit the plug-in
connector opposite of the raised white base of the circuit board connector. Failure to properly connect any of the
connectors will result in a malfunction of the circuit board operation.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The power cord needs to be connected to the plug-in transformer. Figure 9 shows the cord attachment to the
transformer.
NOTICE: Observe all state and local electrical codes.
